Razar (The Mating Games series Book 1) (7 page)

Razar threw a pillow at his brother. “I’ll have you know I know how to do that just fine.”

“Glad to hear it since we’re all depending on you to get things wrapped up.”

“Yeah, I can’t wait until Glendar interrupts your mating to see how it’s going.”

“That’s not the only reason I’m here. I thought you’d want company for breakfast since humans need so much extra sleep.”

“We’re not sure if they’ll need that after bonding or not. These are the first humans that will become part of our community.”

“You think the bite will lessen their need for sleep?”

“I don’t know, but it will make some changes, of that there’s no doubt.”

“That would be so cool. I want all the waking time with my mate I can have. That way I’ll never be lonely again.”

“If she gets to know you too well she may run and hide.”

“Ha ha. You’re so funny, big brother. Go fix me some breakfast. I’ll make the coffee. It’s not too bad and we need to get used to it. Remember they said humans drink it by the gallon socially.”

“They did say that but Lista only had two cups and she said she never got real coffee anymore. Maybe they aren’t completely right about these females. Come on, let’s eat breakfast.”

Razar cooked and fed his younger brother. There was much love among his family and all were fully part of the family. Razar knew families that had a black sheep, his family wasn’t one of them. They were blessed by their gods that they all were a happy part of the family. Lista would fit in perfectly, he knew his whole family would just love her.

Travlr and he sat and talked a while until Lista woke and joined them. After making introductions, Razar got up and fixed Lista something to eat. When he was done and put the plate in front of her, she and Travlr were laughing up a storm. He was happy they seemed to get along so well, really. But he wanted her to get along with him better than anyone. It was time for his brother to go so he and his mate could continue to bond. Travlr and Razar exchanged a look and Travlr made his excuses and left.

“I’m glad we’re alone now.” Razar looked at her with rampant desire as he spoke.

“Why is that?” She asked even though she had to know what he meant.

“Unless you’re hungry or sleepy, I suggest we clean up.” She nodded and his mouth went dry. He was ready for her now and excitement buzzed through him.

Leading her into the bathroom, he undressed quickly and she just stood watching him. That was alright because he helped her strip too. Since they were both naked he turned on the water setting the temperature at very warm. Pulling her under the water with him, she moaned out loud.

“That feels nice.” She admitted staring at him. He nudged her under the spray so her hair would get wet, then wet his own hair too.

Razar got a dollop of shampoo and washed her hair making sure he was tender but thorough. Pushing her under he made sure all the soap was rinsed out. Next, he added conditioner working it gently through her hair. He could no longer hold back and he pulled her up against him kissing her lips until his were numb. The female was his perfect match so far in every way. His life would be nothing if he couldn’t convince her to stay.

Filling his hands with a special body wash, he began to massage it all over her body. “That tingles. Is it supposed to do that?” Lista asked looking a little nervous.

“It’s got properties similar to peppermint. It is invigorating.”

“I’ll say. It’s tingling all over especially there.”

His hands kept lathering and rubbing and she moaned and squirmed. It delighted him to watch her and it also made his cock jump. There was nothing he’d like to do more than sink it inside her. The tray berry leaves that caused the tingle also had a sweet scent that acted like a pheromone. Lista seemed to be influenced by it too. He couldn‘t rinse her off fast enough because he wanted to claim her. Once the soap was all gone, her arms came up around his neck and he kissed her, fire raging through him. His hands reached down to grab the soft cheeks of her ass and he pulled her up onto his hard shaft. Her legs came around him wrapping him tight as he slid in her slippery channel feeling welcomed home.

He turned so he could use the wall to settle her against as he began to thrust in hard and deep. There was a rumble of enjoyment deep in his chest as she crooned to him urging him to go even faster and deeper. Her channel squeezed rhythmically giving him an indescribable pleasure. His demon was near the surface enjoying their joining and biding his time until he could mate her. He pounded into his female and she was slick and took all he had to give. She urged him on wanting more and he felt a tingle running down his back. Her channel tightened and he knew she was on the edge of her own release.

The wet squishing sound as he slammed into her excited him more than he could say and pushed him closer to his orgasm with each drive inside her. Her nails dug into his back feeding him just a small amount of pain, but he embraced it. Moving one hand between them he searched for her sensitive bundle of nerves so he could push her over the edge into bliss. When he found it he pulled it between his thumb and his finger and she exploded around him allowing him to follow. She screamed his name and her channel clamped down hard on his cock squeezing his essence out of it. Razar bucked and jerked against her feeling the most powerful release he could imagine. It pulled from his toes all the way through his body and even his scalp felt electrified from it. They both gasped, struggling even to breathe, and he felt his mate shiver in her delight.

Their coming together had been perfect, so completely wonderful that surely it was a sign that they should be bound together forever. He nuzzled her neck as he continued to hold her close reluctant to let her get away from him.

“Have you thought about staying here and mating me? I would make you happy, I swear!” Razar whispered into her ear as he held her tight.

“I’ve thought of nothing else. My old home never made me really happy but I’m afraid that if I stay here I might become unhappy later and it will be too late to leave.”

“I would never allow you to be unhappy. You would be the center of my world.”

“Tell me more about what mating involves.”

“A male wins his mate in the games.”

“Is hunting the only game?”

“No, but it is the most common one. Most public games where many play are hunts. The royals didn’t like hunts, they found them too common and dirty. They usually played games like puzzles or ran mazes. Once the mate is caught, the male gives her a chance to rest and clean up before he shows her that he can give her what she needs.”

“So he woos her?”

“Yes, if he gets her agreement, they will make love and he administers his mating bite which transfers the venom, they exchange a promise to stay together forever, and the male chants magical binding words. I’ve been told you feel the mating take hold and then you are joined for all time.”

“Does it hurt?”

“I’ve been told it feels magical and wonderful.”

“It sounds romantic. How are you sure when it is right?”

“There is a feeling there and when the games commence, the mate you see is meant to be yours.”

“You only saw me?”

“Yes, no one else existed for me but you.”

“Sometimes you say the most beautiful things.”

“You make me feel the most beautiful things.”

A few days passed as they grew closer and became more addicted to each other. It wasn’t just the sex, they had much in common and she was as physical as he was. She also rarely slept the eight or more hours he’d been told to expect, usually fully recharged with six. He and others of his kind generally slept a solid four hours unless ill or wounded. The differences didn’t seem to be large and they adjusted to each other perfectly. Each day he hoped she would tell him she was ready and she seemed to become more a part of him and his world with each passing moment.

Razar fixed breakfast waiting for his female to wake and join him. He was almost done when she came up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. She leaned on him for a moment. “I see you’re cooking. It smells great.”

“Breakfast for us, Mate.” He used the term mate hoping she’d get used to it. Nothing would make his life more perfect than finally claiming his female.

They sat down and ate their food quietly until they were nearly done. “I would like you to accompany me to my parent’s house.”

Lista looked gobsmacked. “Alright, if you wish.”

“My mother is Gildra and my father is Davar. They are both good people and will love you.”

“They won’t know me, why would they love me?”

“Because you are mine.”

Nothing else was said as Lista hurried to get ready taking extra care although she was already beautiful beyond words. They arrived to find most of his brothers were out working or exploring but that was alright because she could easily meet them next time.

“Mother, Father, Maxar, and of course Travlr already met Lista, who will soon be my mate. Lista, this is part of my family.”

Everyone spoke at once happy to finally meet her and she said the same even though her face sported a pretty blush. “Razar has spoken so much about you.”

“He has told us much of you as well.” Davar said. “Why don’t we sit at the table and have a drink?”

They sat and talked for a couple hours getting to know each other better. Razar felt good about the way his mate and his family interacted. If only he could convince her to mate, everything would fall into place. “What are you two whispering about?” Razar asked when he saw his mate and his mother quietly speaking. They didn’t answer, only laughing at him. “Mother, you’re not telling stories of my youngling days are you?” She blushed but laughed.

“Those stories are so good.” She and Lista exchanged an amused look.

“I’d best take Lista home before you tell her all my secrets.”

“Bring her back soon so the other brothers can meet her.” His mother came close so she could give them each a hug.

As soon as they were out of the house, Razar hurried them home. “I missed holding you.”

“I missed it as well.” Lista looked at him with need in her eyes.

“Every day I ask and I keep hoping you’ve made up your mind.”

“I think today I have. Your parents are still in love after all these years and they made it through hard times. The stories of you and your brothers as young ones were so endearing. It makes me want to have a dozen like you. Just joking, but maybe a couple and then we’ll see.”

“Oh, thank the gods that you’re willing to give us a chance.”

“Why do you say gods sometimes and goddesses other times?”

“We have both and it depends on the situation or which ones come to mind. Right now I should praise them all.” They were home and he picked her up carrying her into the house. Rushing to the bedroom he slid her down his body to where she could stand on the floor. He quickly undressed so he could watch her undress. “You are ready to become my mate?”

“Yes, I am ready to stand at your side for all time.”

“I am already yours forever, but now it will be official.”

Looking at his mate, he was awed by her naked perfection as always. Pulling her into his arms, he kissed her until they were both breathless before he laid her on the bed like a perfect buffet for his hands and mouth to feast upon. His desire rolled over him hotter than ever since he knew she would soon be his one and only for all time.

“I love you, Lista. Even though we have only had a short time together, I know you are everything to me and I will never let you go.” He slid over top of her keeping his weight on his elbows as he began to seduce her completely with his mouth.

Kissing her, he worked his way down her throat and to her perfect rosy nipples. His mouth tasted her nipples and they hardened until they looked like berries and tasted just as sweet. She writhed and moaned under him, her reaction making him hard as steel. Continuing on his exploration he kissed his way down her abs to her belly button. Laving it out, he loved the way she whimpered and squirmed under the lash of his tongue.

“Razar!” Lista screamed as he worked his way to the cusp of her thighs.

Breathing deeply and enjoying her full rich female scent, his tongue whipped out into her creamy goodness and he savored the small taste he’d gotten. He intended to taste a lot more. Opening her tender folds, he slid his tongue inside tasting and exploring. Her essence exploded on his tongue like the warmest honey and he sank his tongue deep into her channel. It flooded with sweet cream as her body prepared to explode. She locked her legs around his head squeezing as her body bucked and jerked with her release. Razar lapped up all the sweet juice her body released before he climbed up her body sinking his hard shaft deep inside her.

Relaxed, Lista would come alive again quickly. He would ensure it. Setting an easy pace to start, he aimed for all the pleasure centers she had. His speed and depth increased as he slammed in harder with each stroke. Electricity zipped through him and pleasure was consuming him. All he wanted was for his mate to reach her bliss first. His gums hurt as large hollow incisors erupted from above his regular teeth ready to inject the mating venom into his mate. Now his gums itched with the need to release the mild toxin that would bind his female to him forever.

His nipples were beaded hard to the point of being painful and his cock ached with need to release its load of seed. Razar’s fingers worked their way to her nubbin and pinched it causing his mate to explode in wave after wave of pleasure. His fangs sank into her releasing all the mating serum into her blood as he filled her with his seed.

“You are mine always. Majestum cum mardling.” Razar made his claim and sealed it with the ancient words of a long forgotten tongue. It meant mine if the goddess wills it roughly.

“You are mine too.” Lista said her voice hoarse from screaming her pleasure and his name.

He waited for the sign that the goddess had blessed their union. It appeared seconds later as a mark showed above his heart. His sweet mate had one too and they were both purple and looked like the face of a wolf. That was the animal that represented his house and family line although on their old world the animal was red. Perhaps the mark was rasin, the darkest purple before black, because the closest animal to a wolf was purple on this world. They might never know for sure.
